hi there ive got a 1.0l corsa b converted to a c20xe at the moment its overfuelling so im putting a fuel pressure regulator on it and maybe turn it down a bit? however im looking to do some improvements tank side of things (fuel pump,filter possibly lines if good improvement?) just wondering if anyone knows the best parts and makes to look for and also if anyone knows any good uprated injectors to purchase which are not pushing a massive budget

As said find at why it's over fuelling first. No point sticking bigger injectors in coz that'll just make it worse. Start with the cts,that's the most common suspect for over fuelling

what do you mean by cts cos all i can think that stands for is coolant temperature sensor? and yh i was just looking at options etc and i got quite a big pipercross air filter on it but it needs reattaching more securely...

CTS does indeed = Coolant Temp Sensor. It reports the temp of the coolant back to the ECU, which in turn adjusts the level of fuelling into the cylinders based on if its cold or not. Cold engine, more fuel to go bang. Hot engine, less fuel needed to go bang (in simple terms). Fucked sensor, could very well euqal a hot engine, but sensor reporting its cold, and the ECU then merrily throwing more fuel into it to compensate for it being cold... But not..
